What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Futangue’s rooms and suites are contemporary in style, but rustic in inspiration, with plenty of bare wood and organic textures like leather and fur.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
More than one hundred kilometres of trails wind through virgin rainforest, past hidden waterfalls, and down toward the shores of Lake Ranco.
The rooms
Interiors feature native timber walls, Mapuche-inspired textiles, and deep wooden window sills framing views of oak-studded meadows and distant granite towers.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Floor-to-ceiling windows enclose an indoor heated pool that opens to a half-Olympic lap pool across the meadows.
The spa
A wood-fired sauna looks out across the reserve, and timber relaxation lounges face the native forest.
Restaurant
Mesón del Caulle
Chef Karime Harcha highlights northern Patagonian flavours with estate-foraged mushrooms, coastal seafood, and native berries.
How it began

Taking its name from the Mapuche word for canyon, the estate was designed around the rugged topography of Chile's Lake District.
